The complexity of engineering and building design is increasing steadily. This book provides an up-to-date reference on this subject for architects, builders and students who lack formal training in engineering. Topics covered in depth for the first time in this edition include: structural masonry, design for lateral forces, elements of dynamic behaviour, plywood shear walls and diaphragms, rigid frames, and structures with internal pins. There is also an entirely new section on the design of structural systems for buildings which contains both general discussions of basic concerns and examples of the design of elements of the systems for three buildings. The text has been designed for architects, builders, lecturers and students of architecture.
